Great fit for a narrow foot

I struggle finding shoes as I have long narrow feet and had to resort to buying mens shoes as they don’t make them large enough in women’s. I took these on a 100km hike and was thrilled not one blister. Like wearing a really comfortable sneaker. We had some rain didn’t realise my feet were damp but think that was due to moisture wicking from my socks. Also have used them for rock scrambling and seem to be fine.

These are very good looking waterproof shoes. I love them but I took them to do some hiking under rain and mud conditions. Now they aren't as waterproof as before and I used them just for a year. They are not very sturdy either.

Truly waterproof but not insulated

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these because the Archive Glacier Point Boot was sold out of my size. Ultimately, satisfied with them though I won't bring them out if < 20°F.

Many of my friends want to buy this shoe now

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shoe has been great in the snow and nice enough to wear to work so I'm not needing to change from snow boots into sneakers. Great for hikes as well. Many of my friends want to buy the same model now.

Love these shoes!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great look and fit. They are wide around the toe box and didn't take any time to break in which is awesome. Dont expect them to last years though.
